What's the hardest part of your business?
Mine? Me. I'm the hardest part. Because Im having to become someone new, to do the things I've never done. And I'm not going lie. I struggle. A lot.
The days I wake up knowing I need to call people who will tell me "No." The days I really don't feel like posting another video that only gets 110 views... The Saturday I should miss the kids soccer game...
The days I haven't posted in the group...
They're all hard. And I'm not perfect...
I've let myself off the hook and I didn't do thing I needed to.
There's more than that.
I wrestle with did I make the right move. Did I do too much... Too little. Will this video turn me into a viral meme (not in the good way.) Did I scare people away. Did I kill my reputation... Did I let people down...
Here's the truth: Even though I've built a business that's done all things I say...
This business? It's different.
I can't hide behind a product I never will wear or use. I'm not selling a product that's sexy or fun. This business requires a different version of me. A version I'm not fully yet.
The version of me who can robotically post everyday. Call everyday. Never miss a day.
Sometimes, I've needed to be that version. And I didn't have the strength to push myself into the uncomfortable...
I almost didn't post this. Heck, I didn't know where to put this post... So "General Help" it is. Maybe it might help. Even if it just helps me to admit.
Admit that the hardest part everyday hasn't been the systems. Or knowing what to do. It's been me vs me. And I don't always win.
But I sure as hell won't stop coming back for the rematch.
And my hope is that neither do you. 🙏
